n Dec. 11, 12, 13 and possibly 14 — Plein Air Painting from the Ground Up with Ray Hassard, 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Nothing is more wonderful than painting outside in a beautiful place. We will work on: Getting off to a good start, finding a subject, building a skeleton, fleshing out the painting, and how to get the most out of painting outdoors. We will illustrate the five important aspects of plein air painting: big shapes, design, values, color and design. Ray is primarily a pastellist but students can be at any level and may use oils, pastels or acrylics. Students should produce at least one painting per day with a lot of personal attention at the easel as you work. There is an optional fourth day to expand on the basics. Cost: $165 plus optional 4th day at $35 for members, $170 +$40 for non-members. Limited to 12 students. Contact: ray@rayhassard.com or 513-941-1116.
